If you are lucky enough to be walking around with Samsung’s newest flagship, the Galaxy S4, then why not pick up some games optimized specifically for it? Gameloft announced this morning that they have optimized many of their games for the device’s gorgeous 4.9″ 1080p display and beefy 1.9GHz quad-core processor. The games can be picked up from both Google Play and the Samsung Apps application located on your device. 

Optimized apps in Samsung Apps:

• Real Football 2013
• PLAYMOBIL Pirates
• World at Arms
• Wonder Zoo
• MY LITTLE PONY
• LITTLEST PETSHOP
• Asphalt 7 : Heat
• Modern Combat 4 : Zero Hour
• Wild Blood
• Dungeon Hunter 4

If you already have your hands on the device, you best go pick some of these up. And if you are looking for recommendations, then I would say go for Modern Combat 4 and Wild Blood. Good titles.

Amazon Offers Up Big Sales to Celebrate Appstore’s 2nd Birthday is a post from: Droid Life

PowerA, the sellers of the MOGA gaming controller for Android, are offering a special deal on a limited supply of controllers. For a very limited time, you can get a new $50 controller, coupled with Gameloft’s Modern Combat 4 for free. All you have to do is pay shipping and handling. Awesome, right? The controller attaches to your device, turning any phone into a portable gaming system.

Once on the site, add the controller to your cart, then apply the coupon code, “SecretSanta.” You better hurry!

Coupon Code: SecretSanta

Update:  We crashed the PowerA site for the MOGA, so they temporarily took it down. They are assuring customers that the deal is still on, though, and that they have extended it:

Wow! You must really like MOGA!
Don’t worry, the deal is still on.

We have temporarily taken down PowerA.com due to the overwhelming response.

Please check back as we will be back in business shortly!

Didn’t get your order in? Don’t worry, we will be extending the offer.

Update 2:  The site is back up! They have apparently extended the sale until tomorrow, assuming their stock lasts that long.

Act Quick: $50 MOGA Gaming Controller and Modern Combat 4 For Free is a post from: Droid Life

This afternoon, Gameloft’s highly anticipated Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour hit Google Play. The game looks to bring console-like gaming to your mobile, as you play through an intense story mode, as well as an insanely in-depth multiplayer mode. Does it have enough to take down Shadowgun? We shall see. 

Naturally, like all good things, it isn’t quite ready yet for download. For now, it is marked as incompatible with all of our devices, but we’re guessing that will change once Gameloft decides to give it the green light. In the mean time, charge up your device because we’re guessing it will be a ridiculously sized game!

Can’t win them all I guess. Today, Gameloft confirmed that their upcoming war-based masterpiece Modern Combat 4 will launch sometime shortly after it is released for iOS, on December 6. Naturally, they wouldn’t give any word on why we are being snubbed with this longer wait time, but I can only imagine it’s to give us some extra special features. Yeah, that will be the day, Tim.

You know what else we have to look forward to on December 6 though? That’s right, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City!

Gameloft’s Modern Combat 4 to Launch for Android Sometime After iOS, What Gives?! is a post from: Droid Life

Modern Combat is probably the most well known war-based game on mobile. Many would refer to the series as the Call of Duty of Android and I would tend to agree. This morning, Gameloft has published a video that is part of a series that gives us a behind-the-scenes look as to how the developers are making this the most insane Modern Combat offering yet. 

While adding more complex controls and movements, a comprehensive story line where players play as both U.S. soldiers and the villains, and enhanced vehicle physics, this game is looking very nice. Graphics look smooth and I’m excited to see how the multiplayer gameplay comes along.

A new trailer for Gameloft’s Modern Combat 4 has gone live and it’s definitely leaving us wanting a lot more. As we can see from the types of vehicles in the trailer, it’s most certainly taking place in the future and gives off a certain Black Ops 2 vibe, which is completely okay in my book. The Modern Combat series is certainly setting the bar for FPS war games on Android, which means we get to take a break from Dead Trigger.

The game is due out in the Fall of 2012, so we’ll just have to hang in there and await an official release date.
